Returns on Christmas Seals Are
Slow in Returning This Year
Returns to this year's Christmas Seal campaign, held tip
by the recent snowstorm, arc beginning to increase now at
headquarters at Canton National Bank but there will still
have to be considerable surge in the number of contributions
to make up for the several days lost during the storm, Melvin Bixler, rural seal sale chairman, said this week.

dolls, Japanese and Chinese character dolls, a Hopi Indian kachina,
and others equally interesting.
The Little. Art Gallery is open
during Library hours, and admission is free at all times.
Impossible to Exaggerate
It is almost impossible to exaggerate the potential
seriousness of our military involvement with the Chinese
Communists. The fact that we are involved, even though on
a very limited scale as yet, is one more example of mistaken
guessing by top military men and diplomats. It has been
reliably reported that our troops were halted briefly at the
38th parallel because of the danger that the Chinese might
move *if we went on toward the Manchurian-Korean border.
Then, it is said, the leaders, including General MacArthur,
told Washington that in" their estimation Red China would
not act. The troops went forward—as, indeed, they had to if
North Korean military force was to be destroyed. But the
experts were wrong, and the Red forces thronged across the
border.
We are not as yet formally at war with China.—or with
anyone else. But in-these days it is certainly difficult to
decide what is war and what is not war. The day of declarations of war before the shooting started seems 'to have
ended. And the fact remains that Americans and Chinese are
killing and wounding each other.
The hope exists that the troops of Mao are in Korea only
beqause of limi*-ed objectives—to secure their frontier, and
io -protect the Yalu River electric power plants, built by the
Japanese, which serve important Manchurian. centers as well
as North Korea. Before too long we will know whether this
is true or not. In the meantime, we must, even though reluctantly, consider what war with China would mean.
William H. Chamberlin, one of the best of the commentators on foreign affairs, has written on this subject in the
Wall Street Journal. In the event of such a war, he points
out, we would have three courses of action. First we would
attempt an all-out offensive against China. But, he writes,
"feven With-a -abaggering expenditure of manpower and nia- . .-Miss Corda*- .of tftie. Bag Depart
terials this would probably fall short of its objective. The*™** rpct"VpA a check for $nl
occupation of Korea was a manageable military problem. The
occupation of all China is not." China, like Russia, has been
the graveyard of invaders for centuries.
Second, we could hold a defense line in Korea, attempt
to disrupt Chinese production and communications with air
and naval attack, and induce Chiang's Nationalist forces,
new on Formosa, to invade the mainland and organize guerilla actions. "This would be something of a shot in the dark,
writes Mr. Chamberlir-, "and the Chinese Communists could
probably sustain this kind of endurance contest as well as
we could."
Third, and last, we could withdraw altogether from the
Far East. Of this course,- Mr. Chamberlin says, This would
raise the bleak prospect of a Communist-dominated Japan
some day being used as the spearhead of the Asiatic part of
i gigantic Soviet encircling pincers movement against us.
It would be hard to think of courses of action more dispiriting than these. That is the reason why so much effort
is being given to seeking a diplomatic solution to the presence of Red China troops in Korea, why we have scrupulously refrained from branding Red China an aggressor, and why
we have not bombed, as we so. easily could, the electric power
plants in Korea and the Chinese industrial and supply points
across the border. The biggest question that fet remains to
l>e answered is whether or not Mao is controlled lock-stock-
and-barrel by the Kremlin—and whether or not he and the
Chinese people are willing to do Russia s fighting for her
in a war to which no one could see the end.

Get Together
"Everybody talks abcut the weather, but nobody does
anything about it." Wasn't it Mark Twain who wrote that?
Well, I think we are getting just as bad about the future. Ive
listened to more depressing conversation lately about wnat

' Oh, I -know-there*.are lots of. people working to be sure
that what hits won't hit them! But they do not seem to realize that individual effort, not individual indifference to one
another is what is needed. ,
We can either revert to a jungle existence and fight each
other for what remains, or we can work together, pooling our
resources, to expand productibnfor all of us.
Collective piWpei*it_/'is; not divisible. Without cooperation
or collaboration (I like that latter word best because it is
co-labor) we cannot get anywhere. The best plans in the
world won't work uhless ■ labor and management, small business and great corporations, fanner and worker, consumer
and producer, governtoent and private enterprise—whether
that private enterprise be a business or a labor union—get
together on the points they have in comfpol., shelving their

will bring prosperity-to all.
"When Crew and Captain understand each other to the
core, it takes a gale and more than a gale to put their Ship

w-hich was for only Canton and
rural areas, was $4,550.60, as compared to $4,455.80 on the first day
last year.
The 3,300 letters opened this
year to reach the present total represented the most Christmas Seal
return letters over opened here in
one day. Mr. Bixler said.
However, Mr. Bixler pointed
out, although this year's sale so
far seems to be about the same as
last year, "more funds are needed
now by the tuberculosis associatioi.
because of increased costs of operation. Tho association's regular
program of health education and:
detection bv fc'ie Christmas Seal
Mobile X-ray Unit will be jeopardized unless the extra Christmas Seal dollars are raised to
meet these costs." he emphasized.
Meanw-hile, officials of the association repoi-t that during the
past few days they have been told
of several persons attempting to
sell Christmas Seals door to door.
Thev remind Stark Countians that
tuberculosis Christimas Seals are
sold only by letters mailed directly to the home or place of business
according to the Christmas Seal
tradition of allowing the decision
of whether or not to contribute to
be .made in privacy.
There is only a minor exception,
they say, and that is the few "self
.serve" trays with seals for sale
which are placed on stationery
counters und in nost offices. This
is only for the convenience of
shoppers who forgot their seals
and want them for cards.
■Mr. Bixler also asked persons
who plan to answer the Christmas
Seal appeal, to please dp so in the
pink return envelo_-.es which are
enclosed in the letters so propei*
c red it for the contribution might
be made. A card is kept on each
individual contribution but if no

sent later to persons who have
mislaid or foi-Rotten their seal letters.
Use of the pink envelopes will
not only ease t!ie work of <the tuberculosis association, he said, but
will eliminate hard feelings caused
•c-y some persons receiving reminder cards who have already contributed.
Information has also been received that the rainy Mondav of
last week aDparently caused many
of the seals contained in Christmas Seal letters to stick and consequently thev can't be used on
holiday packages and cards. If
those persons will drop a card to
that effect to the association,

Returns to this year's Christmas Seal campaign, held tip
by the recent snowstorm, arc beginning to increase now at
headquarters at Canton National Bank but there will still
have to be considerable surge in the number of contributions
to make up for the several days lost during the storm, Melvin Bixler, rural seal sale chairman, said this week.

and others equally interesting.

Impossible to Exaggerate
It is almost impossible to exaggerate the potential
seriousness of our military involvement with the Chinese
Communists. The fact that we are involved, even though on
a very limited scale as yet, is one more example of mistaken
guessing by top military men and diplomats. It has been
reliably reported that our troops were halted briefly at the
38th parallel because of the danger that the Chinese might
move *if we went on toward the Manchurian-Korean border.
Then, it is said, the leaders, including General MacArthur,
told Washington that in" their estimation Red China would
not act. The troops went forward—as, indeed, they had to if
North Korean military force was to be destroyed. But the
experts were wrong, and the Red forces thronged across the
border.
We are not as yet formally at war with China.—or with
anyone else. But in-these days it is certainly difficult to
decide what is war and what is not war. The day of declarations of war before the shooting started seems 'to have
ended. And the fact remains that Americans and Chinese are
killing and wounding each other.
The hope exists that the troops of Mao are in Korea only
beqause of limi*-ed objectives—to secure their frontier, and
io -protect the Yalu River electric power plants, built by the
Japanese, which serve important Manchurian. centers as well
as North Korea. Before too long we will know whether this
is true or not. In the meantime, we must, even though reluctantly, consider what war with China would mean.
William H. Chamberlin, one of the best of the commentators on foreign affairs, has written on this subject in the
Wall Street Journal. In the event of such a war, he points
out, we would have three courses of action. First we would
attempt an all-out offensive against China. But, he writes,
"feven With-a -abaggering expenditure of manpower and nia- . .-Miss Corda*- .of tftie. Bag Depart
terials this would probably fall short of its objective. The*™** rpct"VpA a check for $nl
occupation of Korea was a manageable military problem. The
occupation of all China is not." China, like Russia, has been
the graveyard of invaders for centuries.
Second, we could hold a defense line in Korea, attempt
to disrupt Chinese production and communications with air
and naval attack, and induce Chiang's Nationalist forces,
new on Formosa, to invade the mainland and organize guerilla actions. "This would be something of a shot in the dark,
writes Mr. Chamberlir-, "and the Chinese Communists could
probably sustain this kind of endurance contest as well as
we could."
Third, and last, we could withdraw altogether from the
Far East. Of this course,- Mr. Chamberlin says, This would
raise the bleak prospect of a Communist-dominated Japan
some day being used as the spearhead of the Asiatic part of
i gigantic Soviet encircling pincers movement against us.
It would be hard to think of courses of action more dispiriting than these. That is the reason why so much effort
is being given to seeking a diplomatic solution to the presence of Red China troops in Korea, why we have scrupulously refrained from branding Red China an aggressor, and why
we have not bombed, as we so. easily could, the electric power
plants in Korea and the Chinese industrial and supply points
across the border. The biggest question that fet remains to
l>e answered is whether or not Mao is controlled lock-stock-
and-barrel by the Kremlin—and whether or not he and the
Chinese people are willing to do Russia s fighting for her
in a war to which no one could see the end.

Get Together
"Everybody talks abcut the weather, but nobody does
anything about it." Wasn't it Mark Twain who wrote that?

We can either revert to a jungle existence and fight each
other for what remains, or we can work together, pooling our
resources, to expand productibnfor all of us.

co-labor) we cannot get anywhere. The best plans in the
